流產

歷史記載

從古至今,流產就一直既是一個醫學問題也是一個道德問題。當一些內科醫生在研究更安全的流產方法的時候,其他人卻根本拒絕流產。許多宗教也總是對流產大加責難。同時,各國政府不時設法通過各種各樣的限制性或較少限制性法律,來加強或減弱強制力。在20世紀的進程裏,許多立法機構放寬了對反流產法律的限制。甚至於時至今日,雖然世界範圍的許多婦女現在有權在醫院或私人醫生診所進行合法流產,這個問題依然未能得到解決。
Abortion

Historical Notes

From ancient to modern times, abortion has been both a medical and a moral issue. While some physicians searched for safer abortion methods, others refused to perform abortions at all. Many religions have also always condemned abortion. At the same time, governments tried to prevent abortions by passing various restrictive or less restrictive laws, which, at various times, were vigorously or less vigorously enforced. In the course of the 20th century, many legislatures liberalized their anti-abortion laws. Still, even today, the issue has not been resolved, although many women around the world have now access to legal abortions in hospitals or in the doctor’s office.
